Love at the Next Stop

Chapter 112

Chapter 112 Aren’t You Going to Sit Closer to Me?

Stella was surprised that even Lisa had noticed her jealousy, which meant that Miles would definitely notice her jealousy if she were to go to him now. Back when Miles was playing chess with Kevin, he commented that women liked to conduct spot checks, which was something that he didn’t seem to like. Therefore, she began hesitating about going to his office and took a step back. After all, she didn’t want to be perceived as a narrow-minded woman by him.

Meanwhile, Miles was waiting for her in his office. Coincidentally, Yulia’s text arrived. ‘Stella just left when you got to my house.’

Yulia already guessed that Stella might have seen Miles when his phone beeped with an incoming message at her house, which she assumed was from Stella. Seeing that Miles went away in a hurry after that, she supposed that something must have gone awry. Thus, she didn’t tell Miles that Stella had just left until he had gotten out of her house as well. She had done all these just for the sake of stirring up a misunderstanding between them after realizing that Miles hadn’t been honest with Stella.

With a frown on his face, Miles could easily see through what Yulia was up to. Why is she being so conniving? he wondered. On the other hand, he surmised that Stella must have seen him enter Yulia’s house, which was why she asked him that question. However, a smile tugged on the corner of his lips, for he was curious to see how Stella would look when she did a spot check on him out of jealousy like a married woman.

Just when he was thinking so, his phone beeped with a message from Lisa, who knew what happened between him and Stella back when they were in Murdough. Therefore, her relationship with Miles had become closer, so she would occasionally send him some personal messages like this. ‘Mr. Grant, Stella is here. She has quite a jealous look on her face though.’

She wrote it as if she was expecting to have a good laugh while watching them from the sidelines. When Miles read it, he smiled in resignation. She seems to enjoy watching me suffer.

After a while, he got another message from her. ‘Mr. Grant, I think Stella might have left.’

Frowning, he then saw Stella leaving the office building resolutely and hastily from where he stood on the corridor. Huh, she must be jealous! But she also seems to be in a hurry.

In fact, Stella was indeed in a hurry, for she just got a message from Matthew about an urgent task. Having decided that visiting Miles wasn’t on the top of her list, and that she didn’t want him to see her looking jealous, she left at the thought of the embarrassment she would have to go through.

After that, they hadn’t kept in touch for a few days. Both knew the other would be in Hollowcrest City, so they didn’t contact each other since they knew the other would be nearby.
